Happy Earth Day!

Good morning!

Elder Weber have been trying out emailing in the morning. It's been working out well, we'll probably continue it.

This week we went out to Cherry Grove! It was sweet. We had our outlying Zone Training Meeting on Tuesday afternoon in St. Paul, and then we drove from there to Cherry Grove and spent the night and the next day with them. They live about 5 minutes from the Saskatchewan border, so of course we had to stop by and take a picture :) On the way to St. Paul we also stopped in Andrew, Alberta and got a picture of the "World's Largest Mallard Duck", then in St. Paul is the UFO Landing Pad, and then on the way to Cherry Grove we stopped in Glendon and got a picture of the giant Pyrogy! It was a road trip very rich in culture. They were all on the way too, so don't think we just abandoned the work and went joyriding :)

We had Stake Conference this week, and Elder Choi of the the Seventy came up. He's from Korea and he's hilarious, it was like a comedy act the whole time!

Our car got broken into! Yeah! We went out Saturday morning and my door was open. So we went in and evaluated. They could have stolen, Elder Weber's wallet, my mp3 player, and all of our CD's. But all they took was my gum in the glove compartment, and a $10 bill sitting in the center console haha. He was a thief of simple tastes thank goodness!

Frane came to church yesterday, but we couldn't meet with her this week because she had to leave right after. Hopefully we'll meet this Saturday though. Andy came to church and is doing really well. The ward's been doing great with fellowship now that he's baptized.

That's all for this week! I attached some pictures for your viewing pleasure. They are all pretty self-explanatory :)
